Hello! I've been wondering, what is the circle under Autoflight Pitch Mode on FMA? I have no idea what could it be, because I'm still a newbie. Thanks for any help! :smile:

Thank you!

Should I retract it up to 5, 15 or 20? Thank in advance! Mixer

Thank you! I figured it out!

So, after you get to the gate, you shutdown the airplane and click "PANEL STATE SAVE"? Next time you enter the aircraft, you load the save? And that's it?

Hello! I've watched a lot of tutorials to start flying ultra-complex Boeings (PMDG 777-200 and PMDG 737-800NG), but always during takeoff, they were saying either: increase thrust to ~40%, press TO/GA and release parking brake (737) or increase thrust to ~55%, wait for it to stabilize and press TO/GA [without setting parking brake on runway] (777). And I also saw proffesional pilots do it in real life. But why? How does it help? Is it necessary? Also, below FL100, pilots turn on Engine Start Switches To 'Continous'. It gives more chances, to keep the engine running, during the bird strike. But if it's so good, why do pilots turn it off above FL100? And one more thing, during flight, Engine Oil, and Hydraullic Fluid slowly decrease over time. But when you end your flight and close the game, do those variables some kind of 'save'? Is there a reason to check those values constantly during preflight checklist? (in flight simulator, like FSX) Any help would be much appreciated! Thanks!

Thanks a lot for sir! :smile:

So, I've recently got PMDG 777-200 and it's fantastic! But I have a problem with one thing. I don't get the descend path, until I fill out flightplan completely (STARs Transitions etc.) It's very troubling because my T/D is often before the last waypoint in the flightplan and I can't tune ATIS (because I'm still too far out) to check available runways. Is there any way to counteract this? Any help would be much appreciated! :smile:

Thanks guys, I figured it out!

I turned on WXR mode, set up heavy precipitation and turned up Gain a little bit but it just doesn't seem to work.

Wow, thank you! :smile: But how to connect it and how to turn it on?

Yes. And probably I can't use ActiveSky2016 as a Weather Radar tool. That's a pity.

I got ActiveSky2016, not ASN. But isn't it working on ActiveSky2016 too?

So, I recently got ActiveSky2016 weather engine, and I don't know how to get Weather Radar to work on either PMDG 737-800NGX or PMDG 777. Also, am I able to use it in this version of Hifisimtech products? Because in the PMDG Introduction, I've read that you need Active Sky Next, or later version. Thanks! I appreciate any help!

Thanks for help! I've solved it!
